Boseker Scout Reservation has operated for the past 90 years in Idyllwild, California. The camp is nestled at 6,000 feet of elevation and surrounded by pines, granite boulders, and not too far away from Tahquitz a famous mountain and rock climbing area. We had the pleasure of working with the Environmental Science group at camp, and a Trainer Course. Our first session with the scouts we focused on how to be stewards of the land, and how to apply Leave No Trace on outings and daily recreation. We played a couple of games from the PEAK pack, “Minimum Impact Match & How Prepared Are You?”. Paula Boothe a Master Educator, was providing a Trainer Course for Boy Scout Leaders at camp, and we sat in and did a couple of 101 activities for the group and answered specific Leave NO Trace questions. Thank You so much to all the camp staff Sue & Paula, and everyone else for making us feel right at home, We love Idyllwild! Have a great rest of summer & camp!
